Mothership question

When attacking, how do the weapons and shields affect an enemy defence?

When Defending, how do they affect the attackers strike?

I mean if I attack someone my weapons engage their mothership, do my shields come into it anywhere down that line?

Call me a noob, I wont be offended. :-D

Stupid noob :x 8)

The 'attacking' mothership strikes first, if the attacking mothership's strike is larger than the defending motherships strike + shields combined then the excess strike is added to the troops attack.

i.e. Bonus strike = Attacking MS Strike - (Defending MS Shield + Defending MS Strike).

The maximum damage my mothership takes when I get hit by some stupidly large one is.

Shields: 3.33%
Strike: 5%

Then the defending mothership attacks and the same process happens, though any bonus is added on to defence.

Also the maximum bonus your mothership can provide is 100% your strike/defence, i.e. it can only double it.

Not sure how fleets work though. :?

Hmm thought so.

Do they all count as 'defense' like strike does? Or does the strike just run through them?

fleets count towards attack and defence...
